2 DNR and DNI A DNR order only relates to situation of cardiac or respiratory arrest where CPR will be withheld. A DNI order is a treatment plan item based on an instruction from a patient not to provide mechanical ventilation/intubation should it become medically necessary. BIPAP and CPAP are not considered mechanical ventilation and are not included in a DNI order. University Hospital requires a hospital order for DNI for staff when the treatment plan will not include mechanical ventilation. Scenarios Your 85 year old clinic patient with capacity has asked you to assist her with a DNR/DNI that she may keep at home. Your inpatient for whom you completed an in hospital DNR is now getting discharged, what should you do? 2 Options for Out of Hospital DNR/DNI New York State DOH Nonhospital Order Not to Resuscitate OR New York State DOH Medical Order for Life Sustaining Treatment (MOLST) which also requires the MOLST documentation forms 2

Her husband is present and wishes to consent to a DNR/DNI What are the criteria to allow consent in NY State if the person consenting is not the health care proxy? Relationship of the consenter order of priority given? What part of the document do you complete? 8
9 Scenario A patient whose resuscitation would be futile which means would provide no medical benefit because the patient will die imminently even if treatment is provided and providing such resuscitative measures would violate accepted medical standards. No authorized decision makers willing or available Can you make the patient a DNR? Yes 2 physicians needed 9
10 Scenario It is 2 AM, a patient with a unsurvivable head injury and her spouse wishes to consent to a DNR No attending is present Can the resident complete the DNR?
